A new ecdysteroid glycoside, limnantheoside C (20-hydroxyecdysone 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-[-->3]-beta-D-xylopyranoside [1]), together with limnantheoside A (20-hydroxyecdysone 3-O-beta-D-xylopyranoside [2]) and 20-hydroxyecdysone (3) have been isolated by bioassay/RIA-directed HPLC analyses of a methanol extract of the seedmeal of Limnanthes alba Hartw. ex Benth. The structure of the novel ecdysteroid glycoside (1) was determined unambiguously by UV, LSIMS and a combination of 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments. These three compounds are isolated from Limnanthes alba for the first time.
